Vampire Weekend, a new, up-and-coming Indie-Rock band has swept the nation with its “soft-rock.” Its latest album titled Mansard Roof is, in my opinion, excellent.

I recently rediscovered the grunge and hard rock band called “Pearl Jam”. They were one of my favourite bands in the early 2000s when I first started discovering my love for hard rock music and bands such as Creed, and Lifehouse. These days, I’ve begun to do some re-exploring …
